(You can see some of it on my other site PK and the Brain - Links below)<br /><br />I am also working on the colour.&nbsp; This is an area I am not so sure about.&nbsp; I keep looking at the two outcomes and I truly cannot decide between them.&nbsp; So this might happen and equally might not.<br /><br />I am getting a bit worried as the last six pages of chapter 1 are nowhere near finished and I only have 3 complete pages left.&nbsp; I'd better pull my socks up and get on with it.<br /><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

This is because I've been busy&nbsp;reworking the colour scheme throughout.&nbsp; It's put me behind a little as the last 6 pages of chapter 1 are still just line drawings and I had hoped they would be at least flatted out by now.&nbsp; Still I think it has been worth it and hopefully next week I'll have what I hope will be the finished colour.<br /><br />I see I have a follower.&nbsp; Welcome Wendy I hope you are enjoying this little experiment.Peter Kneeshawhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04697740129043651795noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-613809625867175914.post-26861619537319691762010-11-12T02:55:00.000-08:002010-11-12T02:55:43.971-08:0012/11/10 or 11/12/10 in USAHello,<br /><br />No update this week because big changes are afoot.Peter Kneeshawhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04697740129043651795noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-613809625867175914.post-82848387044067160202010-11-01T07:03:00.000-07:002010-11-01T07:03:51.235-07:00Page 14I've added page 14 to the book on the left and to the chapter 1 page.<br /><br />I've also been working on the text quite a lot just lately.&nbsp;&nbsp;A lot has been changed and a lot is ready to&nbsp;be changed soon...<br /><br />I'll add some new concept stuff next week also.Peter Kneeshawhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04697740129043651795noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-613809625867175914.post-1297933476749745632010-10-25T04:44:00.000-07:002010-10-25T04:44:49.671-07:00Page 13 - Unlucky for someHello and welcome to page 13 - I hope you enjoy it as much as I did creating it.<br /><br />Also I am adding a few concept sketches.&nbsp;

When I sat down to draw or write I was getting very little if anything done.&nbsp; As I was translating what was in my head onto the&nbsp;page it was getting incredibly harder to finish even simple tasks.&nbsp; I think this was because I don't give myself&nbsp;time for other art.&nbsp; So to combat this I have bought a fantastic new sketch book which I am attempting to fill with quick portraits of people on my commute to work and back.&nbsp; It seems to be working.&nbsp; I've done 20 or so so far.&nbsp; I might post a few here some time.<br /><br />Talking of posting from next week I am going to&nbsp;start adding some concept sketches for Temple Roots.&nbsp; I know I'm no great artist or anything but I thought&nbsp;it&nbsp;might nice to show part of the process.Peter Kneeshawhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04697740129043651795noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-613809625867175914.post-13992100899674629062010-10-11T04:37:00.000-07:002010-10-11T04:37:05.046-07:00New PageI have added a new page to the book on the right and to the Chapter 1 page above.Peter Kneeshawhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04697740129043651795noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-613809625867175914.post-15207908144617760842010-10-04T04:52:00.000-07:002010-10-04T04:52:47.245-07:00New pageHello,<br /><br />I have added a new page. check the book out on the right and the link at the top.<br /><br />Also I posted a few pages on a new forum <a href="http://makinggraphicnovels.com/">http://makinggraphicnovels.com/</a>&nbsp;and got some good solid advice from them regarding the colour scheme I am using.&nbsp; As I have nearly finished the first chapter it will continue as it is until that is finished.&nbsp; When it's complete I'm going to work out a colour process and redo the colour scheme.&nbsp; I may also continue the whole thing in black and white but I'm not sure just yet.<br /><br />EnjoyPeter Kneeshawhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04697740129043651795noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-613809625867175914.post-79797554748572050382010-09-27T05:50:00.001-07:002010-10-04T04:44:32.065-07:00New colour test.New colour test<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

Although I have to draw out and ink the last four pages which have taken some time to get right. I thought I had them looking good and was excited by what I’d actually got down on paper but something didn’t seem to flow quite right. So I deliberately didn’t look at them for a week and when I went back I saw some really gaping errors. I hope I’ve fixed these and will get these pages drawn and inked by the end of next week.<br /><br />This means the first chapter will have a grand total of 26 pages of sequential art, a front cover and an inside front cover. When I’ve flatted and shaded the last four pages I will begin colour from page 3 onward. I need a bit of a head start so I'll&nbsp;start adding finished pages in a month or so.&nbsp; This hopefully will give me enough of a gap so not to create any&nbsp;interruptions in posts later.<br /><br />In the mean time here is the next page in black and white. Again no text, sorry, I want it to be enjoyed in colour.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_DRa07ZEjlr0/TGUvIrGwq8I/AAAAAAAAAPc/1MRaGSQDc_4/s1600/GraphicNovel_Page005_Small.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; cssfloat: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" ox="true" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_DRa07ZEjlr0/TGUvIrGwq8I/AAAAAAAAAPc/1MRaGSQDc_4/s400/GraphicNovel_Page005_Small.jpg" width="282" /></a></div>Peter Kneeshawhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04697740129043651795noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-613809625867175914.post-66384534765038178862010-08-05T05:48:00.000-07:002010-08-05T05:56:22.126-07:002 New Pages - Black and whiteHere are the next two pages in black and white.&nbsp; I have 20 pages at the same stage which I will be adding on a 2 weekly basis.&nbsp; I'm still experimenting with colour at the moment regardless of the first 2 pages.&nbsp;&nbsp;As soon as I get the pages into what I consider a final stage I will add them to the book on the right.&nbsp; I have text&nbsp;laid out for these pages but I'll only be adding it when I feel confident about it.<br /><br />Page 3<br /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_DRa07ZEjlr0/TFqw4POgsRI/AAAAAAAAAPE/yr9DRkNTY2M/s1600/GraphicNovel_Page003_NoText.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; cssfloat: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" bx="true" height="400" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_DRa07ZEjlr0/TFqw4POgsRI/AAAAAAAAAPE/yr9DRkNTY2M/s400/GraphicNovel_Page003_NoText.jpg" width="282" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Page 4<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_DRa07ZEjlr0/TFq060ZJJdI/AAAAAAAAAPU/eF6hAoC7mVE/s1600/GraphicNovel_Page004_NoText.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; cssfloat: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" bx="true" height="400" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_DRa07ZEjlr0/TFq060ZJJdI/AAAAAAAAAPU/eF6hAoC7mVE/s400/GraphicNovel_Page004_NoText.jpg" width="282" /></a></div>Peter Kneeshawhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04697740129043651795noreply@blogger.com0
